Description
An elegant and substantial detached Sussex Farmhouse style home, set within beautifully mature gardens, enjoying rural views, generous living spaces, a sun terrace, and a peaceful, private setting.

Originally constructed in 1932, Littlewood is a distinguished and beautifully maintained detached residence, set within generous, mature grounds and enjoying a delightful outlook. The property offers a thoughtfully arranged layout, perfectly suited to modern family life, with an elegant balance of reception space and practical living. Over time, the current owners of 30 years have carefully enhanced and maintained the home, including beautiful new flooring and underfloor heating to the majority of the ground floor, creating an inviting and comfortable environment that blends high quality finishes, character, functionality, and a strong connection to its surroundings.

Littlewood occupies a discreet position within a highly desirable setting, offering the best of both worlds - a sense of seclusion alongside convenient access to the local amenities of Wootton Bridge and Ryde. The surrounding area is characterised by open countryside, leafy lanes, and scenic walking routes, while nearby towns provide a range of shops, schools, and everyday services. The location is ideal for those seeking a quieter lifestyle without compromising on connectivity.
